REJOICING OVER DENNIS VICTORY.
The Colored Republicans Who Helped to De-
feat COy's Ticket Unite in a Jollifcation.

In the recent municipal campaign and on cleo
ton day the services of the Porter-Denny Club
were invaluable. No men were better organ
lied than these colored citizens who paid es-
pecial attention TO those who contemplated fraud
and bribery. Last night came their time for re-
joieing over the victory. and they had in hand
all the elements that contribute to jollifcation
in speeches, songs and refreshments. The lee
ture room of Ames NJ E. Church, on West Yer
mont street, was crowded by colored and white
citizens Of that section of the city. The speeches
were brief, but none of them failed in stirring
the audience to the heartiest applause.
Ex- Governor Porter was the first speaker.
He complimented the club for its excellent work
and congratulated the citizens on securing for
the mselves officers who had earned by their
character and record the fullest confidence of
the people. Attorney general Michener's speech
also aroused mis- hearers to cheers and applause,
did that OF Mayor Denny who thanked his
colored friends for their earnest and faithful
support. Secretary of State Griffin and Auditor
of State Carr made shors but telling speeches.
The city clerk-elect, John w. Bow
lus, added his thanks to those of the
Mayor. Rev. JOHN W. Gazzaway, DR.. S. A.
Ebert and Mr.. George l.. Knox were spirited in
their denunciation of the lawless. and severely
criticised the people Of their race who had been
led astray by the false promises of the Demo
cratic workers.
An excellent elee club throughout the evening
sang political choruses, one of which, ''DenGy
Built the Ark" caused the greatest delight.
After the speeches, refreshments were served,
and then came the social features OF the jofliffA
cation, which were kept up until late hour.

Greepleaf with a large amount of real estate Of
inflated value IN his possession. Like many
others. he had ITO GO into bankruptcy. He
moved to Knoxville, Tenn, and was gone some
years. When ne came back he went to DIR. Ed
and talked with him about his
old obligation to the church. He said
he did not believe the Lord would prosper
him in business until it was paid. and ne had
come back to try and make it good. He said he
had contracted for a lot of urn-tables but had
no money with which to manufacture them. He
then proposed to DR.. Edison that if he would be-
come his financial sponsor he would give
half of the net profits arising from the manu-
facture of the turn-ta bes to ACKNOWLEDGMENT,
not as a payment of the old subscription but as
a new one which he felt he should make

The misunderstanding which eliminated in
the suit $50 of DR.. Ed
sons money expended by Mr.. Green
leaf in travelling expenses incurred in
the sale of turn tables in the West. Mr.. Green
leaf claimed that according to the stipulations
of the contract, his travelling expens were to
be borne by DR.. Edison, and TO this Mr.. Edison
objected. The matter was referred to the board
of trustees of the church. who after hearing the
case. allowed Mr.. Greenleaf $137. Shortly after
ward DR.. Edison claimed to have discovered
some new evidence and the case was re-opened,
and the former action revoked without another
hearing, and this action led Mr.. Greenleaf to
issue a pamphlet setting forth his side of the
case. and dealing harshly with DR.. Edison and
some members of the congregation. In the back
Of his pamphlet he printed this scriptural pass
age:
''And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it
unto the church. But if he neglects to hear the
church, let him % unto thee as a heather man
and publican"
The publication caused Mr.. Greenleaf's dis
missal from the congregation. He appealed
from the board to the presbytery. That body
Endorsed the action of the board, and then the
suit was filed before Squire Feibleman.

IN TROUBLE WITH HIS PASTOR.

Suit Against Rev. Ii. A. Edison.

The trial of the suit Of c. A Greenleaf against
Dr. II. A Edison, pastor of Memorial Presby
terrain Church, for $154, alleged to be due an
account, attracted great many people to
Squire Feiblemans court yesterday. The evil
dence was concluded, and the argument will be
heard to day.
The evidence submitted showed that in 1870
Mr. Greenieaf subscribed 1000 to the church
building fund. for which he gave his notes.
When the notes became due he went to the
trustees OF the church and told them that he had
the money TO pay them off. but could use it to
great advantage IL it was not needed
by the church then. AS inducement ito Sc
cure the use of the money, he offered to increase
his subscription to $500 AS the money was
not needed then, his proposition was accepted
and he gave his notes for $8. 500. Soon after

''We are too bad; the world is grow
ing worse p says an old citizen and
moralist. Well, if we grant such to
be the case, there must be reason,
for even badness cannot come without
a cause. The fact that the world is
as bad as it is, must be charged to the
good people of the world. There is
scarcely community in which there
does not exist majority Of people
who are at heart in favor of law
and order. Of course there are
exceptional cases, but most peo-
pie like to enjoy feeling of
security, and to live at peace. The
moral looseness Of any community
comes for the social and political
looseness of the people. We make
laws, and when they get upon the
Statute Books that is an end of them.
We elect executive officers year after
year, knowing that they will not en-
force the laws, and we permit such
loose state of things to obtain until
the negligent officials make it part
of their tenure to fight down even the
sentiment which demands laws. The
people fall in with the nefarious work
of the professional politicians, and the
result is a great load of useless laws.
In gospel work and all grades Of
moral work, the people become
divided, and lack of harmonious work
causes lack Of success. If the good
people of this country would but
throw aside all petty jealousies, take
up the weapons Of sobriety and moral
advancement, and do their full duty
as men and Christians, it would not be
long until we would have a Nation
that would be the wonder of the
universe.

We learn that the liquor interest at
Cincinnati proposes to educate the
children in the public schools, through
the medium Of textbooks prepared
under the supervision Of the Devils
Agents, to be drunkards. That's the
way to promote the great and good
work of killing the liquor business,
very rapidly. The liquor dealers are
now almost to the point reached by
the Democratic party in 1860. The
Shareholders insisted that they should
have the right not only to keep their
accursed business perpetual in their
own States, but to spread it all over
the country, and to control the entire
social and political system. If the
Devils Agents attempt to go into the
public schools, even in Cincinnati, to
teach drunkenness, they will settle
the business in that community at
least, as to what should be done with
the liquor traffic.

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an infamed condition OF the
mucus lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inhamed, you have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an infiamed condition of the mucus
surfaces.

Sedentary Habits.

In this age of push and worry, the
business man and the professional
man are alike unable to devote any
adequate time to exercise. In the
daily round of toll and pleasure, no
suitable provision is made for that i'm
portant function, and the result is
that men Of sedentary habits become
subject to many forms of ailments
arising from torpid or sluggish liver.
Constipation, sick headache, bilious
ness and dyspepsia are all due to the
improper action of the liver. DR..

liver to its normal condition.
